One of the craziest fanbase is actually in Italian league. You won’t like what they will do to you if they turn against you. They’re boycotting as a protest against Lazio president Claudio Lotito. They have been doing it since January. The only game they didn’t boycott is the derby and the situation is much deeper than ordinary football frustration. The supporters, mostly the ultras, have been boycotting home matches to pressure him into selling the club. Let me tell you why. They think he Lacks ambition. They believe he has failed to invest sufficiently in the squad to make Lazio competitive for major trophies. Which is true, when last did you see Lazio sign a big player? Another thing is he is selling important players. The likes of Ciro Immobile, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Luis Alberto and Felipe Anderson, have left. You’re not signing, yet you’re selling the few bright spark. If you check Lazio of 2000s you will understand their frustration. Also there have been years of tension, with supporters accusing the president of disrespecting the club’s identity and ignoring their concerns. But now the situation is almost out of hand. The ultras aren’t simply demanding better signings again. They want Lotito to sell Lazio. Funny enough, Lazio are actually doing brilliantly on the pitch. Gattuso is doing magic, they look like they can even compete for the league. They’re second on the table and haven’t lost any game so far. Yet the supporters are still refusing to attend home games. Season-ticket sales went from nearly 30,000 to around 4,600. Funny thing is, they still travel in large numbers to away matches to support the players. In other words, they’re deliberately sacrificing the atmosphere at their own stadium to make a statement to the owners. They just want him gone. Man U fans should learn one or two here.
